Internship Programme

Unlock Academic Excellence with Expert Guidance

Lumidraft Writing & Research Services is proud to offer structured Internship Programmes for students, aimed at enhancing their practical skills and academic writing capabilities. Our internships are tailored for undergraduate and postgraduate students who wish to strengthen their foundation in scientific communication and laboratory methodologies.

Internship Program

Key Features of the program

Scientific Writing Training

  • Fundamentals of academic writing and research ethics
  • Structure and formatting of research articles, reviews, and dissertations
  • Referencing styles (APA, MLA, Vancouver) and citation tools (Zotero, Mendeley)
  • Plagiarism awareness and use of plagiarism detection tools

Personalized Mentorship

  • Each intern is assigned a mentor to monitor progress and provide academic guidance
  • - Support in writing mini-project reports or literature reviews based on the internship topic

Laboratory Techniques Training

We offer Guided online sessions designed for students to learn essential laboratory skills from the comfort of their homes. - Our online courses are structured to explain core experimental principles and protocols with practical video demonstrations and interactive modules.
Fields and Basic Experiments Covered:

  • Biochemistry:
Spectrophotometry, protein estimation assays (e.g., Lowry, Bradford), buffer preparation, and basics of chromatography.
  • Microbiology:
Aseptic techniques, preparation of culture media, Gram staining, simple staining, and introduction to antibiotic sensitivity testing.
  • Molecular Biology:
DNA/RNA extraction (demonstration-based), PCR theory and setup, agarose gel electrophoresis, and primer design tutorials.
  • Cell culture:
  • Introduction to cell culture, types of cell lines (adherent vs. suspension), and essential laboratory equipment (biosafety cabinet, CO₂ incubator, microscope, etc.).
  • Aseptic techniques, including sterile handling, use of laminar flow hoods, and contamination control.
  • Preparation of cell culture media, supplementation with fetal bovine serum (FBS), antibiotics, and pH buffering systems.
  • Thawing and revival of cryopreserved cells (demonstration-based), including the use of DMSO and proper handling post-thaw.
  • Subculturing (passaging) of adherent cells, involving trypsinization, splitting ratios, and confluency monitoring.
  • Cell viability assays, such as Trypan Blue exclusion, and growth monitoring through cell counting and microscopy.
    • Detection of contamination, including bacterial, fungal, and mycoplasma contamination by visual inspection and demonstration of staining/PCR-based methods.
    • Cryopreservation basics, including freezing medium preparation, controlled-rate freezing, and long-term storage in liquid nitrogen.
    • Introduction to drug treatment assays, including preparation of treatment concentrations, exposure of cultured cells, and viability testing using MTT or similar methods.

    - Ideal for undergraduate and postgraduate students seeking to strengthen laboratory understanding in Biochemistry, Microbiology, Cell culture, and Molecular Biology.

    - Course materials include video lectures, e-manuals, experiment simulations, and assessment-based certifications.

Certification

  • A certificate of completion is awarded after successful participation and evaluation
  • Support in writing mini-project reports or literature reviews based on the internship topic

This program is ideal for students preparing for higher studies, thesis projects, or those pursuing careers in research and diagnostics.
